Youngest child of (Jean) George and Margaret(nee Schmidt) Heinemann, John Hinamon was raised on the family farm in Richland Township, Marion County Ohio. As an adult, he adopted the spelling "Hinamon" followed by his siblings (a brother George adopted the spelling "Hinaman").
Service to country during the Civil War, he fought at Vicksburg, however he was injured by a shot fired by another union solider while transporting CSA prisoners to Cairo, Illinois. As a result he was troubled by his knee for the remainder of his life.
Married to Amanda P Ferris in Ohio on March 15, 1866. Father of Charles, Maud, Guy, Dorothea, Orrin, Hattie, Mary Mayme. Two sons, one unnamed the other named for his father died young.
Moved his family from Wyandot County Ohio to Jasper County Missouri in the mid 1870s.
An intseresting note: A local Marion Ohio newspaper tells the story of a trip back to Ohio for John and his Amanda after many years in Missouri. He entered into a Tristam's store in Marion and there he he found his brother Frederick who began to converse with him. After several minutes of conversation, John told his brother who he was - his brother not recognizing him and thinking that a joke was being played on him. It took several minutes, and the telling of some family business that only Hinamon's knew about before it dawned on Fred that this was infact his brother. The newspaper account is not dated, but the encounter would have taken place sometime between 1899-1903, most likely when John and Amanda returned from a trip to Germany.
